Chest image of Phantasmagoria, which was a precinema projection ghost show invented in France in the late 18th century, which gained popularity through most of Europe (especially England) throughout the 19th century. A modified type of magic lantern was used to project images onto walls, smoke, or semi-transparent screens, frequently using rear projection. The projector was mobile, allowing the projected image to move on the screen, and multiple projecting devices allowed for quick switching of different images. Frightening images such as skeletons, demons, and ghosts were projected. The bottom says PHANTASMAGORIA - THIS and every EVENING, at the Luceum, Strand. The back shoulder on one side has various astrological symbols. Vintage feel. Slim fit 100% cotton. Each is unique and one of a kind and has been hand-treated in order to produce its unique character. Color: mold green multi-color dye.
